Interestingly enough this is because of the security hole in Cyrus
libsieve that was recently found:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=521010

And even more interesting is that I found at least one other really
simple buffer overflow from the libsieve code. Wonder why I hadn't
checked the libsieve code properly earlier..

So, Dovecot's fixes are here:

http://hg.dovecot.org/dovecot-sieve-1.1/rev/4577c4e1130d
http://hg.dovecot.org/dovecot-sieve-1.1/rev/049f22520628

I'll make new Dovecot Sieve releases and report the other new bug to
Cyrus people..
